Jan 13 2008-update on first poste -Green machine, high boost rice
Well I told u all I blew the bitch up with a ---- tone of boost and a lot of tire smoke (and no oil because of a clogged oil pickup)
Well I had the TT rods resized
New block and re filled
bored out 30 over
decked perfectly flat
micropolished crank
notched block
all new race bearing speced out for each pleace in the engine, nothing standard all precision
And friday the new custome made 9.0:1 flat top JE pistons just showed up.
The bottem end will be together this week, now I have to decide whaqt Im going to do with the head. I think it will just be a stock rebuild with new valves and springs.
[http://size=20pt]----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/size]http://www.youtube.com/v/bJPg-xqyW40"
this is the sticker it came with its ------- awsome
then this is the new turbo
and then this is the mani its going on
update
ok well some up date picks here
after doing all this stuff to the bottem and I took the head into school to clean it up. After that I was looking at it a figured if I have pulled it apart to clean it I might as well do the valve seals, but If I do the valve seals I might aswell do a full valve job? So now am waiting for a head gasket kit. Acura wanted 7.86 or that a peice(X 16), ---- that. Kit off ebay comes with full head gasket set(including valve seals)for 50 shiped.
on top of that I was able to weld the steel to the cast housing some exspensive rods. pre-heated areas, welded, place fire blanket over after to keep the heat in. work perfect and bolted back to the turbo.
befor
after
will make a nice mandrel 3" downpipe with the matching flange
and the filled block
march 26 update
got my pro seal rings today aswell as my new tail lights
update apr 20
engine is together now!
had to cut out a ---- load of block and even shave the turbo to make the Mack truck turbo fit and still keep the full size rad but we did it! hopefully will have it in the car next weekend and on the street in 2 or 3 weeks
update apr 29
Well we went to install the engine today and had nothing but problems.
Joe started and ended the day doing the body work, hed did a realy good job so far.
me, WOT, Rishis, josh went towork on the engine. got the cluctch setup in, its so tight its bending the bracket its atached to. tranny on and we got the coilovers in, engine n but not finished. it was a pretty good day all and all.
at around 6pm I figured all the guy had worked there ***'s off all day and where happy to do it so it was time for a brake. we hit up thease hardcore twisty roads, a good 40min drive through 40km turns at 120 in the 2 crx's and the sir hatchback. after a nice cruz through there WOT got into it with a built Type R(N/A built) and just wooped his ***. the guy was thinking WOT had a "K20 swap" but must off been put to shame finding out that it was just a b16a1.
heres some pics
and the end of the day
Thanks guys you all helped a lot
update july 7
well this is the problem
I never told anyone but I striped on of the head bolts in my build
I said ---- it Iv gone this far this bitch is gonna run, and she did just fine, untill I hit 11.5psi and the head gasket let go right where that bolt goes. so I pulled the head off and put in a helicoil and shes ready to go back together.
I seen one on ebay for 90+20 shipping to canada but dont know if it will be here in time or if I should just do a copper spray again? guess I have no choice but to do the copper spray again
JULY 17 2007
Well she was running and I did get a video of her running but its not the greatest
(Will be here soon/today)
I already changed the head gasket and put in 10 1/2" grade 11 capscrews to hold the head down and also uped the head TQ to 60ft/lbs from 47
all I have to do now is new plugs and re set the timming, and put the doors on and paint the bitch

Re: heres my new x mas set up coming together

fully built forged D16a1 with filled block low comp
TT rods, je pistons, b series wrist pins this turbo and mani
in a DOHC D series in my crx
turbo has a 68 on the exh and a 1 on the other side
looking at 20 to 30 psi at the track after a lot of tuning
